Recipes For Chicken Verde

This spicy, saucy chicken takes almost no time to prep in the morning and only 5 minutes to finish before eating. At its simplest, the recipe is a meal-in-a-bowl stew, and the toppings are key to making it feel special. You could serve the chicken over rice or a whole grain, or use it as a taco or enchilada filling (use a slotted spoon to serve the chicken, if it is very saucy). You can also add 1 cup of frozen or fresh corn, or a drained 15-ounce can of black beans or pinto beans; just add them at the end along with the fresh cilantro and scallions. The level of heat in jarred salsas can vary, so taste yours first to ensure it is to your liking. If you want more spice, leave some of the jalapeño seeds in, or use hot canned green chiles instead of mild ones.

After looking at the timing in some of Melissa Clark’s Instant Pot recipes with options of slow and pressure , I made this in Instant Pot using 15 minutes pressure and natural release. It was perfect timing. Really delicious recipe using exactly the ingredients listed. My local grocery store had only one salsa verde ( lots of red). I will try other salsas from other stores.

Crazy easy and delicious. Made in a dutch oven in a 290 degree oven for roughly 1.5-2 hours. Added in one cup of homemade chicken broth at the beginning and by the time I added in the corn and beans I had the perfect consistency. Personally suggest upping the cumin by a half teaspoon or so.

I made this exactly as written and served over rice. LOVED it. Would not change a thing. This will be a staple in my house - so easy, and so good!

Used my Instapot - tried the recipe on 6 hours normal setting on slow cook. Chicken was still uncooked- YIKES! So used pressure cook setting on high for an extra 10 min on High. Did the trick! Also marinated chicken overnight, better than trying to salt afterwards. Used Del Real salsa verde we buy at Costco, added two bay leaves before . Family couldn't get enough. SO much healthier than the carnitas version we normally do and just as tasty.

Throw that in with the chicken in the crockpot in the morning and it's a perfect weeknight dinner at the end of your day.
